[OE-core] [PATCH 0/3] Add gummiboot boot manager alongside grub-efi

Hello,

This series adds recipes for gummiboot and a class allowing it to be used
as the boot loader for live/hddimg images.
Without changing EFI_PROVIDER, we have the same behaviour for EFI machines.
Using EFI_PROVIDER = "gummiboot" an installed image will use gummiboot instead
of grub-efi as it's boot manager.

I've tested this on FRI2, NUC and minnow (live USB boot and install from USB and boot) 
with  EFI_PROVIDER = "gummiboot" and  KERNEL_FEATURES_append = " cfg/efi-ext"
in local.conf

This is a partial fix for YB#4082.

Cheers,
Stefan
